Volunteering provides a platform for students to develop essential skills such as leadership, teamwork, and communication. By actively engaging with diverse communities, students broaden their perspectives, fostering cultural competency, and a deeper understanding of social issues. Overall, volunteering can be a great source of networking, personal growth, can help instill a sense of fulfillment, and allows a chance to make a positive impact on the community.

The GVSU Community Service Learning Center serves as the clearinghouse and resource for students at GVSU who are looking to volunteer. They post volunteer and community engagement opportunities on their website, and can be a great resource for getting started in finding the right opportunity for you!
